Wishlist Wenesday (#1)

Wishlist Wednesday is a book blog hop hosted by Dani at Pen to Paper. You will post about one book a week that is on your wishlist. It can be on you just added or one that's been on your list for awhile.

In Beatrice Prior's
dystopian Chicago, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated
to the cultivation of a particular virtue--Candor (the honest),
Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful),
and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all
sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the
rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with
her family and being who she really is--she can't have both. So she
makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself.

During
the highly competitive initiation that follows, Beatrice renames
herself Tris and struggles to determine who her friends really are--and
where, exactly, a romance with a sometimes fascinating, sometimes
infuriating boy fits into the life she's chosen. But Tris also has a
secret, one she's kept hidden from everyone because she's been warned it
can mean death. And as she discovers a growing conflict that threatens
to unravel her seemingly perfect society, she also learns that her
secret might help her save those she loves . . . or it might destroy
her.

Debut author Veronica Roth bursts onto the literary scene
with the first book in the Divergent series--dystopian thrillers filled
with electrifying decisions, heartbreaking betrayals, stunning
consequences, and unexpected romance.

I've been wanting to read this book for a while but I just haven't gotten around to it yet. Then once I heard it's in the process of becoming a movie, I'm now on a mission to get this book and have it read before itcomes out! They currently have the release date at March 21st, 2014. So I still have a good year to get this book crossed off my TBR list!
